Chapter 69 - Interstellar Market

Deep Space

(Mech flying the T-Jet)

Power: Mech how long have we been out here?

Mech: If my estimates are correct it's been a week now.

Trick: Time goes by when you stop a robot invasion.

Overshadow: Is long enough for our family's to worry.

Power: My mom must think I've been kidnapped.

Half: Mine too.

Mech: It will be hard explaining where we've been when we come back.

Fenris: If we come back.

Overshadow: What's those lights?

(All of them see lights from distance)

Half: Fly closer, Mech.

(T-Jet flies closer)

(All of them see a gigantic alien space station)

Trick: What is this place?

Mech: The download that got from that satellite told me of this place. Is like an alien station where beings can trade goods with each other.

Power: So like an Interstellar Market.

Half: Maybe one of those beings knows where earth is or the Slayers.

Fenris: Only one way to find out.

Interstellar Market

(T-Jet landing in the space hanger)

(Trackers walk out)

(Alien bumps into Fenris)

Fenris: Hey!

(Alien speak alien language)

Power: Could say that again.

Trick: This guy has a big mouth.

Overshadow: You know his language.

Trick: Where I come from language isn't understanding the word but the emotion behind them. Making us understand any language we hear.

Fenris: Then can tell me what he said to me.

Trick: Trust me you know what to know.

(Fenris getting angry and getting ready to attack)

(Mech grabs her shoulder)

Mech: Maybe we can let this go.

(Alien walks away)

Fenris: Stop understanding me, I can handle myself.

Mech: I know that I just worry about you.

Fenris: Then stop worrying.

Overshadow: I worry we won't get the information we need if only one person can understand the language.

Trick: I almost forgot a spell that can help.

(Trick cast a spell on the Trackers)

(Trackers understanding alien languages)

Mech: Trick what did you do? We can understand them now.

Trick: Is just a spell that shares my language understanding. 

Power: Why did you wait to use it now?

Trick: It slipped my mind.

Half: Ok now we can all speak alien, we can get information we need, and we can do that faster if we split up. Overshadow you're with me, Fenris and Power you be together, and Trick and Mech will be the last team.

Mech: Be Careful, Fenris.

Fenris: I can take care of myself, you should know that more than anyone.

Food Vender Section

(Half and Overshadow trying talk to people)

Half: Have you talked to anyone?

Overshadow: No, it looks like other world people don't trust people in masks.

Half: I'm starting to feel the same way.

Overshadow: What do you mean?

Half: I mean that my parents are probably worried sick because they don't know where I am. Part of the reason I chose to hide my identity so they wouldn't worry but it has an opposite effect.

Overshadow: Is this really about them or you kid from another world.

Half: Maybe both it just seemed my secret identity is just an excuse for me to keep secrets from the people I care about, either my family or Lucy.

Overshadow: This life is a hard one but it feels the same whether you hide your face or make it public but I learned your leadership goes beyond mask or powers and your judgement is for the sake of others.

Half: Thanks Overshadow you are really wise.

Overshadow: I just follow my leader's approach.

(Alien calling them)

Overshadow : looks like we have our first friendly face.

(Overshadow and Half walk over to the alien vendor)

Vender: You two look like you have good taste and empty stomachs.

Overshadow: Sorry we are just looking for information sir and we have no money.

Vender: Then how about a deal you try free samples of my food and give you any information you need. With good food and hospitality brings more customers.

Half: Deal.

(Vendor brings out weird looking alien food)

(Overshadow looks grossed out)

Overshadow: We have to try everything.

Vender: Correct.

(Half tries the food)

Half: More please.

Fighting Section

(Power and Fenris see the fights)

Fenris: It looks like earth isn't the only planet with violence.

Power: Speaking of violence you were really mad at Mech.

Fenris: I wasn't made just annoyed he still thinks I can't defend myself.

Power: He's Mech and he tries to protect everybody.

Fenris: I know that's what I like about him… I admire in his heroics.

Announcer: Next fight is up. Fighters and non-fighters take your positions.

(Floor lights glow)

Power: This is a weird light show

(Power and Fenris teleported arena)

Fenris: I think we're the show.

(Two large aliens ready to fight Fenris and Power)

Large alien: Any last words, little ones.

(Power and Fenris send each alien flying with one punch)

Power: Yay brush your teeth more, dude.

Fenris: Anyone else.

(More aliens come to fight)

Power: This might take a while.

Communication Section

(Trick and Mech hide from a mob of girls)

Trick: Wow, the old me would love that those girls were curious about an earthling and A guy from Mirage. Don't worry Mech I won't tell Fenris.

(Mech blushes)

Mech: Why would Fenris not know about this?

Trick: Because Power told me she kissed you once.

Mech: That was only to say thank you for helping her kingdom.

Trick: That's a weird way to say thank you. Are sure it didn't mean anything more to you.

Mech: Well Fenris makes me feel a way I can't explain. It's like she scares me more than anything else but I like being scared of her. 

Trick: I get it. Charmy is a person who most people are afraid of but to me that makes her unique and how she shows her good side, can of how I do. We're the the same in that sense.

Mech: But me and Fenris are opposite.

Trick: You know the saying opposites attract.

(Mech sees a alien device)

Mech: Trick does that look like alien communication device to you.

Trick: Well let's just say yes. 

Mech: Well if this place works like an airport then it should guide their flights and tell them where they are.

Trick: Which should help build your map and help us go home.

Mech: I just need to hack in. I need to first analyze alien technology first. Can you make an distraction for me?

(Trick makes a illusion of small airplanes that distract the crowd)

Trick: Enough time for you.

Hanger, T-Jet

(Trackers all together)

Mech: Me and Trick got more information for our map.

Power: Me and Fenris got a ton of alien money.

Half: Me and Overshadow got so old stories of the slayers. Plus alien food.

Trick: Those look tasty.

Mech: Fenris can I talk to you alone.

Fenris: Ok.

(Fenris and Mech walk in the back room)

Mech: Let me start by saying that I'm afraid of you but also look up to you. It's confusing but I like that you can be a furious and kind person to your people and always do your best. I have a lot to thank you for but let's just do this.

(Mech kisses Fenris)

Mech: I'm sorry if that was too much.

Fenris: The only thing you need to apologize for is stopping.

(Mech and Fenris kiss more)

(Trick, Power, and Overshadow listening)

Trick: Overshadow looks like you and Blind are the next couple up.

Overshadow: Wait blind like me?

(Overshadow blushes and his shadows move around)

(Trackers fly away on the T-Jet)

(Hours later)

(Slayer robots invade the Interstellar Market)

(R.I.P. walks in)

R.I.P.: Hello everyone we are the new management.
